4-Ingredient Beef Puff Pastry Twists
These crispy, golden puff pastry twists are filled with savory seasoned beef and melted cheese. They’re incredibly easy to make with just four simple ingredients and are perfect as an appetizer, snack, or quick meal!
Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
- 1/2 pound ground beef
- 1 cup shredded cheese
- 1 tablespoon taco seasoning
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cook the ground beef in a skillet over medium heat, breaking it apart with a spoon until browned and fully cooked.
- Drain any excess grease, then stir in the taco seasoning. Remove from the heat and allow the beef to cool slightly.
- Roll out the puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Cut it into even strips.
- Spread a small amount of seasoned beef and shredded cheese along each strip.
- Fold or twist the pastry strips around the filling, pressing the edges gently to help seal them.
- Arrange the twists on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one.
- Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the puff pastry is beautifully golden, crisp, and flaky.
- Let the twists cool for a few minutes before serving.
Serving Suggestions
Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce, such as salsa, cheese sauce, ranch dressing, or a spicy dipping sauce.
Tips
- Make sure the beef filling has cooled slightly before adding it to the pastry.
- Avoid overfilling the twists so the filling doesn’t spill out during baking.
- For extra cheesy twists, sprinkle a little more cheese over the top before baking.
